1920's Hairstyles

The roaring 20's is an era which you may associate with the Great Gatsby (written by F Scott Fitzgerald) and many of the styles with which we are now so familiar were first introduced by the famous Coco Chanel.

It was during the twenties that the bob became a popular hairstyle and the flapper dress was the height of fashion.Louise brooks in the mid 1920's - wearing a typical hairstyle of a bob

One fashion icon who epitomised this look was Louise Brooks, with her bobbed hair, worn with bangs or a fringe.

Key Looks from this Era

To re-create looks from this era - dropped waist dresses or straight dresses with a sash tied around the hips. 1920's style beaded dress

Evening gowns with fringes or beading were popular -this image shows a typical (rather luxurious) flapper dress.

Hair was worn short and straight, to complement straight dresses with shoestring straps .

Fur was popular as an adornment - used as colllars or cuffs.  This was also the height of the Art Deco look, so popular now, with brooches still in fashion .
